Why am I here?

I have been editing pages in en.Wikipedia.org since March 2006 and helped improve about 200 pages. Most of my edits are based on appeals from friends to help out with the articles or start new articles. I have created about 45 pages, including redirects. I also contribute occasionally to en.wikinews.org.

My expertise is in science, geology, energy, nuclear energy and international policy on sustainable energy and resource use. I also dabble with philosophy, including Indian philosophy, when I have time. I used to have an interest in Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and contributed to many projects. But I have backed off from FOSS related activities for some time now.

I am happy to help out with any pages, especially the ones that have trouble with sysops. Please leave a request in the talk page.

The great delusion

We do miss something. We dig into popcorn bags and watch the movie with tears in our eyes. Sad, because Trinity has to die, Neo goes somewhere, and so on. We laugh when things get less engaging. We continue to dig into popcorn basket all the same. Freeze the frames and think for a while. What is this whole thing all about?

Wisdom of the expert. Wisdom of the crowds. Both are same to a large extent. Both swear by the exactness of their beliefs. It is not much different than a computer embarking on an independent journey to answer its existential doubts. We are all drawn into the jungle instinctively, following set patterns.

The eternal quest

Out of the many who embark this quest, a few reach the goal. How and why the seekers reach the destination? This is very less known science. A set of simple, yet effective techniques, that bring them to the goal, much faster than any of us. How do they do it?

I hear a voice you cannot hear,
Which says, I must not stay;
I see a hand you cannot see,
Which beckons me away.
-Tickell

Four kinds of of persons, it is said, seeks Knowledge.
The distressed, the inquisitive, the seekers of knowledge,
and those who are in need of money.
They all set forth about in the quest of knowledge.

O best among the Bhāratas,
four kinds of pious men begin to render devotional service unto Me
the distressed, the desirer of wealth, the inquisitive,
and he who is searching for knowledge of the Absolute.
-Bhagavad-gītā As It Is 7.16

What defines us?

We like to be known for our great conquests. But it is our many defeats that define us. The scars, cuts and wounds are the trophies that make us what we are. It is not the medals, barn stars and the awards that define us, but what we have lost or failed to achieve.
